Top Catoctin Wildlife Preserve and Zoo Hotel Reviews

Hampton Inn Hagerstown

10/10 Excellent

"was a very nice and clean room"

Comfort Suites Hagerstown Southeast

10/10 Excellent

"Very good and clean olsce"

Hilton Garden Inn Frederick

8/10 Good

"The staff was very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was made to order. However, our room smelled like a pet had been in it. I had to ask for some air fresher to get the pet smell out of my room. The bathtub needed some repairs. I wish the rooms for pets were separate. I felt like because I didn’t have a pet I was discriminated against. I had to endure the smell and having allergies made it difficult."

Eisenhower Hotel & Conference Center

10/10 Excellent

"A little far out but great place."

Garner Hotel Frederick Southeast by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"The staff, Andrew, was polite and courteous upon check in. Our room was very clean, but ended up being next to the ice machine and elevator which made for a VERY noisy night. Not sure why a room so close to those types of things is not more sound proof, engineering faux pas for sure! We enjoyed the hot breakfast, but it was missing simple things like pepper for the eggs and even something simple like honey for the coffee and tea that were available from the fancy machine. These wouldn’t deter us from staying again, but could easily be remedied."

Comfort Inn Frederick - Ballenger Creek

8/10 Good

"Me and my dog enjoyed the stay, the staff was friendly and helpful. The room was clean. It served its purpose."

Best Western Historic Frederick

10/10 Excellent

"No notes .. was just what I needed."

Liberty Mountain Lodging by Vail Resorts

10/10 Excellent

"Carol was so friendly and helpful when at check-in. Explained the property amenities throughout thoroughly. She was also helpful during check out to make sure they reached our expectations. Golf course was in good shape. Driving range could use an upgrade to the mats etc.. We will be back"

The Plaza Inn & Suites

10/10 Excellent

"Staff was great and the stay was awesome"
